Ireally need studying. our teachers normally gives us notes and i study them but i don't do as well on the test partically because i don't really know how to study. normally, our teachers would give us printed notes or notes we just copy from the board. any tips?

Many times teachers will also have you write your own notes! Therefore you can underline,highlight, or jot down some useful notes that you believe is going to be necessary for the test

Good luck hope this helps :)

Make little questions for yourself (like flashcards) on the stuff on the board. Be creative with the questions. Next study a long time before the test. Usually the night before does not help that much with remembering. Also, ask a friend to help you studylike reading out the work you did or ask the teacher..Last do read it over before the test, a quick glance couldn't hurt. 
Hope It Helps (It Does For Me :) 

Are there options? otherwise, i’d say afghanistan, cyprus, comoros, eritrea, and more are a couple examples of oil-dry countries. let me know if one of those was an option!
